Every year Victoria’s Secret takes the attention off its models to acknowledge the “world’s sexiest celebrities,” as deemed so by the lingerie brand’s What is Sexy? List.

Many of the categories are predictably cheesy — Sexiest Bikini Body, Sexiest Mom — or, in some cases, a bit odd — Sexiest Tweeter, Sexiest Summer Glow — but this year’s pick for Sexiest Style, “The Vampire Diaries” star Nina Dobrev, seems worthy of a shout out. The 24-year-old actress knows how to rock the red carpet, choosing styles that are sexy but also elegant. Click through the gallery to see some of her recent looks.
